Rolex Red Submariner Reference 1680

This Rolex Submariner reference 1680 is a very cool sports watch dating to circa late 1972 with a 3.0M serial. The case has been lightly polished, but is attractive. The dial, minute and hour hand all have the original lume which is a nice pale color. It is paired on a slightly earlier C+I bracelet dating to circa 1971. It is possible the bracelet was added at point of sale and is original The bezel insert has a nice dark fade which has some grayish tones to it.

It does not come with box and papers. We do not know the service history but it is running well. The watch features a True Dome crystal.
